1. Energy

2. Energy can be broken up into 6 types

3. Mechanical Energy
Energy an object has because of its motion or position

4. Thermal (or Heat) Energy
Energy a substance has based on the movement of its particles

5. Electromagnetic Energy
Energy carried by electromagnetic waves (light, x-rays, radio waves, etc.)

6. Electrical Energy
Energy produced by the flow of electric charges

7. Chemical Energy
Energy stored in chemical bonds

8. Nuclear Energy
Energy contained within the nucleus of an atom

9. These types can be broken into 2 Forms

10. Potential Energy: Stored energy an object could potentially have
Kinetic Energy: Energy an object has because it is moving

11. Law of Conservation of Energy
Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but only transferred from one type or system to another

12. Taking a closer look at some of those types of energy…

13. Thermal (or Heat) Energy
Temperature: a measure of how fast the particles are moving in a substance
What is temperature measured in?
Heat: the transfer of thermal energy between substances at different temperatures

14. Energy Transfer Hot  Cold Temperature naturally wants to equalize
Heat will flow from warmer to cooler objects until temperatures are equal
Hot  Cold
